#Whether communication with Oracle server is secure or not. Possible

#values are 'on' and 'off'. Default is off.

#oracle.net.encryption_types_client:

#Secure communication encryption type. Possible values are RC4_256,

#RC4_128, RC4_56, RC4_40, 3DES112, 3DES168. See Oracle documentation

#for details.

#oracle.net.crypto_checksum_types_client:

#Encryption type for Oracle secure communication integrity checking.

#Make sure that the parameter values specified here match those on

#the Oracle server.

#Property which controls the number of days for which historical

#configuration and monitoring data will be retained in the database.

#Data beyond the specified number of days will be purged

#automatically from the database on a daily basis.

#

#NOTE: Before setting the value of this property to any value other

#than zero, make sure ‘gwlm history --purge’ command is executed

#manually (at a time when the database is not heavily loaded) with

#the value of this property as the parameter to ‘gwlm history --purge’

#command. This is to make sure that the first run of the automatic

#purge will not affect database operations if data needs to be removed

#for long periods of time. Since the automatic purge is performed

#on a daily basis, subsequent purges since the initial one will

#remove only one day’s worth of data and should not impose

#much load on the database.

#

#

#Valid values:

#0 : Do not remove any historical data (default).

#1 - 10000 : The number of days for which history will be retained.

#

Any historical data older

than the specified number of

#

days will be removed from

the database.

UX 11i Workload Management (gWLM/WLM) Software specifications

HP-UX 11i Workload Management (gWLM/WLM) software is an integral component of HP's premier UNIX operating system, designed to enhance system performance and resource management across diverse workloads. This advanced tool allows system administrators to monitor, control, and allocate resources effectively to achieve optimal performance, reliability, and service levels in enterprise environments.

One of the main features of gWLM/WLM is its ability to classify workloads and manage them according to specific policies set by the administrator. By using service level objectives (SLOs), administrators can define the performance criteria for various applications and workloads. gWLM continuously tracks these workloads, ensuring that they adhere to the defined SLOs, thus maintaining a high level of application performance.

The software employs resource pools, which segment resources such as CPU, memory, and I/O bandwidth among different workloads based on predefined priorities. This capability ensures that critical applications receive the resources they require, even during peak usage periods, thereby preventing resource starvation that could lead to system slowdowns or crashes.

Another significant characteristic of gWLM/WLM is its real-time monitoring and reporting capabilities. The software provides detailed insights into resource utilization, workload performance, and system health. Administrators can access this information through a user-friendly interface, allowing for informed decision-making and proactive management.

Integration with HP Serviceguard adds another layer of functionality, enabling high availability for critical applications. gWLM can orchestrate workload migration to ensure that service levels are maintained, even in the event of hardware failures or resource contention.

The technology behind gWLM/WLM is built on advanced algorithms that leverage historical data and predictive modeling to optimize resource allocation dynamically. This means that as workloads change, the system can automatically adjust resource distribution to meet performance targets without the need for constant manual intervention.

gWLM also supports integration with various enterprise management tools, enabling administrators to implement comprehensive monitoring and management strategies across the IT infrastructure. The scalability of gWLM allows organizations of all sizes to benefit from its robust workload management features, ensuring that they can adapt to changing demands in their operational environments.

In summary, HP-UX 11i Workload Management software offers a sophisticated solution for optimizing resource utilization, managing workloads effectively, and maintaining high performance in complex enterprise environments. Its comprehensive features and technologies make it an essential tool for any organization seeking to enhance their IT operations.
